Southern Loggin’ Times magazine Western Editor Dan Shell recently visited the Collier State Park Logging Museum while on a trip to Southern Oregon. Shell writes, “When you’re on the road with a logger, spending several hours in a truck cab, the conversation naturally meanders and covers all sorts of things. Loggers will occasionally talk up their local attractions—everything from hunting opportunities to barbecue joints. In late summer, while visiting the Wampler family and their logging operation that dates to the early 1900s, headquartered in the Klamath Lake basin in southern Oregon, Mike Wampler mentioned I might want to go by Collier Memorial State Park on my way out of town. It’s got a neat logging equipment museum, he said. Talk about an understatement! Covering 146 acres on both sides of U.S. Hwy. 97 about 30 miles north of Klamath Falls, the park and museum are located along the banks of the beautiful Williamson River and include camping, hiking and other recreation opportunities.”
